Hello,
i am planning a new computer and would be great if i get some feedback to my new build.

Graphics setting will be between High and Ultra
I have a second Monitor with FullHD and this will be used for Navigraph, Spotify and more

It’s much cheaper to build a new PC of separate components instead of bying a ready build one.
So, if you you have the skills in building your own pc, it can save you lots of money .
Also, ready build pc’s are mostly made of cheap components to make a profit.
Just go to this website. https://pcpartpicker.com/ to see what components are best and try to google for the best prices in your country.
this isn’t a ready build one
i created this list

Ok, sorry, didn’t notice…
IMO 27" is really too small for 4k and I suggest beefing up that PSU to 950 - 1000w for more overhead. Check internal dimensions of the case for both the 4080 and rather large cpu cooler.
which monitor size do you recommend?
Why is it too small?
27" is a fairly standard monitor. In a flight sim a bigger monitor = wider FOV which is beneficial for flight simmers. A bigger monitor will mean your GPU will just have to work that much harder and you could see a loss in performance. Not a huge gamebreaking loss but enough to notice.
27" @ 4K will still look really good. If it comes down to it, you can always go the triple monitor route (or VR). Plus a bigger monitor means you have to sit father back from it in order to actually get “a good picture.”
If you’re going with a heatsink instead of AIO cooling, grab the Coolermaster Hyper 212x. That’s the best CPU heatsink on the market but it’s chonky. But averages 60c under load with a dual fan setup on the heatsink. It also costs half as much as the one you chose.
i dont want to use water cooling. I prefer air cooling.
Personal opinion but unless you’re nose against the screen on a 27" 16:9 screen you won’t see much difference between 4k and 1440p except for reduced performance. IMO something in the 38 - 48" range will show off those extra pixels beautifully. I have a 55" UHTV but it’s just too big to sit that close to.
we have a LG 55 4K and its beautiful and my father has a 27" 4K monitor. (included in my list)
will check it out but i think i stay at 27"
For sure, it’s a good size for a desktop monitor, I just think 4k is not needed.
which monitor do you recommend for flight simming?
Max price is 400€
yeah. Grab the Hyper212x. I’ve only heard of one other heatsink that does better but i don’t think the one you selected is it. I can’t recall the name but i don’t think it was much more expensive than the CM 212

if you can grab one with the dual fans you’ll be a smidgen better of (though in my own research, temperature differences are marginal between one and two fan heatsinks)
monitor not cooling!!!
that is why i replied to this post: 4K Gaming Computer - #8 by anon3270395
i dont change the cooling.
its good for this build
only you can decide what monitor you want. You’ve got a budget of 400 euros and you have an idea of size and resolution that you want. We can recommend based on personal purchases but monitors are one of those things that are entirely subjective to you. What one person thinks is a great picture another may not like. I would visit your nearby electronics store and check out what they have in person. You could end up spending 350 euros on a monitor that had good reviews but you personally don’t like.
